Do something about your situation or curl up in a ball over in the corner. I don't care.I'm not your wife, and my circumstances do not include her opportunities or abilities.

how can he do something about his situation if nobody is gonna put in the work for him and give him their proceeds from the work?Do something about your situation or curl up in a ball over in the corner. I don't care.
If your business can not make a profit, you need a new line of business.I'm not totally wrong about that; that salesman is choosing between zero business, and insufficient business, in that instance. If he continues that business practice, he will soon have no business. The Objective, is to NOT lose money on every deal. If you do, you'll have no business.
And you seem to have missed the fact that working a minimum wage job has a personal cost, which exceeds the compensation received. You can only volunteer to take a loss for so long, before all of your resources are depleted, and you have nothing left with which to do business.
At some point, that terrible salesman will not recoup his costs enough to purchase more stock, and then he's screwed.
You're suggesting this is the proper course, and that all is well.
In other words: you agree that the system is designed to deplete its Human Resources, until they expire. ^^
It may be circular logic. But it's about the world. The world is circular so it works here.Your logic is circular and thus flawed. It also doesn't fit the facts, a more serious charge.
If your business can not make a profit, you need a new line of business.
I'm not saying take the minimum wage job and keep it.
It is preferable to doing nothing.
If you have a stock, as a business man, that has become less valuable than your cost basis in it, you sell it and start a new course of business.
You don't stubbornly hold your stock and have no cash because you'd have to take a loss if you sold it. No, you sell it at that loss and get out.
Likewise if you find yourself with nothing to do, you take that job delivering pizza and retool your skill set to find something else.
You go to school or something.
But you don't borrow your way through school. You work a job and borrow as little as possible.
Whatever you need to do to get by Buck. I don't judge.or, have your parents bail you out from your dope addiction, get you a house, a car, and a job at subway, and stick to making $14 the hard way every night on craigslist's m4m section.
Absorbing too many losses means having nothing left to invest; including health.If your business can not make a profit, you need a new line of business.

I didn't say they wouldn't try. I said that as American Citizens, we have the right and duty to stand for OUR rights, which include not being ripped off by the ultra wealthy.It may be circular logic. But it's about the world. The world is circular so it works here.
The ultra rich seek to influence government. Government is headed by people, and people are susceptible to bribes and the like.
Thus completing the circle.
Rich people have always sought to influence government. It is in their interest.
I'm willing for you to prove me wrong by showing me a society that has ultra wealthy people who don't try to have the society where they reside to protect their wealth.
Well shit, I didn't even make the list.Arresting Officer

Feel ripped off by the wealthy?I didn't say they wouldn't try. I said that as American Citizens, we have the right and duty to stand for OUR rights, which include not being ripped off by the ultra wealthy.
It sounds to me like you're an apologist for the overlords. Do you get a kickback? Otherwise you're volunteering yourself- and all the rest of us- for economic slavery for free.
Did you watch the David Cay Johnston interview above? He isn't lying, all those rules were set up by HUMAN POLITICIANS, and the same people can be persuaded to fix them.
You're just too lazy to contemplate the job, so Fuck off and let someone else try instead of being so fatalistic. You know, people who take their obligations of citizenship seriously, as you obviously do not.
You have to be incapable of thinking to make the listWell shit, I didn't even make the list.
{Insert generic Asian joke here}
If you own a large number of items that have lost value to the point that you can not profit from their sell, you still sell them.Absorbing too many losses means having nothing left to invest; including health.
When the system destroys a person (as it is arguably designed to do), that person has no further recourse.
A person can work a couple jobs, put in 50-60 hours a week and afford to survive. Its the bullshit of working 30 hours a week at a low/no skill position and expecting that to be enough to support their ass for the rest of the week they are breathing. Make more per hour in you want that, or work more hours.And you seem to have missed the fact that working a minimum wage job has a personal cost, which exceeds the compensation received. You can only volunteer to take a loss for so long, before all of your resources are depleted, and you have nothing left with which to do business.
First part is stating the obvious, albeit vaguely. There are nearly infinite "something different" to do with whatever resources one may have; which thing is the right thing?If you own a large number of items that have lost value to the point that you can not profit from their sell, you still sell them.
When you do so you take that money and do something different with it.
Yes, you lost money, but you will still have money after liquidation.
So if you reject the notion that some income is better than no income, what is your idea?
A healthy person who still believes a miserable life is worth living, or still believes their insufficient wage will lead to prosperity, or is too afraid to commit suicide, you mean.A person can work a couple jobs, put in 50-60 hours a week and afford to survive.

Fuck me, I cleaned shit off toilets for 31.5 hours this week and I can't' pay rent. Lets automatically assume it has nothing to do with my lack of skill and the actually service I am providing to the world, and just bitch for more pay so I can just hang out for the other 136.5 hours this week.
Mmm...not quite.You mean he isn't a paid for shill that is told what to write?
We call those people names like "conspiracy theorist" or "fringe journalist" or some other catchy demonizing phrase.
LOL doesn't make his own list...You have to be incapable of thinking to make the list
